- The Hero found her while following and admiring the white stag. As he approached the oak, she told him about the evil harassing the forest. She requested from him a seed from the Spore-Spitting Spirea of the North to preserve the species. When the Hero brings her the seed, she gives him the recipe to the dispel potion and also gives him a magic acorn.
- Dryads have a strong connection to plants, which they are very knowledgeable about, and Woodrue even uses his knowledge of plants to his advantage, for evil and sinister purposes.

- Dryads are a type of woodland creature found in Xanth.
- Dryads are a race of nymphs closely associated with trees. Technically, Dryads are specifically the nymphs of oak trees (Greek drys signifies "oak"), though the term has come to be used for all tree nymphs in general.
- The standard Dryad fights by surrounding itself with a shield of leaves moving in a circular pattern that protect it from all damage and, after a short time, it will fire the leaves forward (much like Leaf Shield from Mega Man 2). Unlike most enemies, it is effected by the gravity changes in Iris Stage 2. Because of this effect, they act similar to the Suzy G enemies from Megaman 5. In Rosenkreuzstilette, it appears in the second stage of the Iris Palace, while in Freudenstachel, a sole Dryad appears in the Forest of God (Dolis's stage).
- Dryads are tree nymphs in Greek Mythology. They are specifically the nymphs of oak trees, although the term "dryad" has come to be used for all tree nymphs in general. They were normally considered shy, except around the goddess Artemis, who was known to be a friend of most nymphs.

- In the Anima d20 Campaign Setting, the dryad is a fictional creature. Resembling a genderless, green-skinned humanoid, dryads live in the ruins of human society in a fictional Earth.
- The Dryad was the disguise of the Joker. He was attempting to scare the gang out of the woods so they wouldn't find his and Penguin's cave.
- They are only dangerous in large numbers, and then only if threatened. Angered dryads have been known to crush attackers under tons of rose petals.

- A plant species discovered on Lemuris that uses its leaves and stalks to achieve a measure of mobility. It usually achieves the size shown approximately one year after sprouting. If its living environment changes for the worse, it uses its unique "walking" ability to search for a better place to live. Emits a terrifying scream if dug out of the earth. __NOEDITSECTION__
- The Dryad is a Champion unit from the Forest Box. It can use the (Magic) Summon Sapling ability. Using this ability costs 1 morale. Funnily enough, summoning a sapling gives the player 2 morale, for a net profit of 1 morale. The Dryad can be used effectively as a defender. The defended point will be replaced by a Sapling which can block further attacks towards other pieces, while the Dryad can still guard that Sapling.

- The Dryad is an enemy found on planet Lemuris in Star Ocean: The Last Hope. It is one of the first enemies met on the planet, and thus, is very simple. However, whenever it digs itself under the earth, it will counter close-range attacks with an area attack that stuns.
- The Dryads are a natural race, born from seeds as a result of Turmanar, the first cataclysm of the Shield of Azunai, and the Sword of Zaramoth. Ther appearance is similar to Elven women, though they have leaves for hair, sap runs through their veins, and their skin represents the colors of nature. The known hues for Dryads are orange, brown, and green. Since there are no Dryad males, it is unknown how Dryads reproduce, perhaps using nature magic to create seeds of which the Dryads are grown from. It is also noted that no Dryad adolescents or children have been seen or mentioned.
- The dryads of ash trees were called the Meliai. The ash-tree sisters tended the infant Zeus in Rhea's Cretan cave. Gaea gave birth to the Meliai after being made fertile by the blood of castrated Uranus. Nymphs associated with apple trees were the Epimeliad, and those associated with walnut-trees were the Caryatids.
- Dryads are plant-like humanoids. Gnarl referred to a dryad as a "plant-person".
- The Dryad is a NPC (Non-playable character) that will move into an empty house once you've killed a "strong monster" or boss. The easiest bosses to kill would be the File:NPC Head Boss 0.png Eye of Cthulhu,File:NPC Head Boss 19.png Skeletron, or the File:NPC Head Boss 2.png Eater of Worlds. The Dryad reveals in conversation that she is 500 years old. She's one of six female NPCs, the other ones being the Nurse, the Steampunker, the Party Girl, the Stylist, and the Mechanic. The Dryad can tell you the percentage of Corruption/Crimson vs. Hallow in the world. She does not drop any items upon death.
- The third monster belong to the Plant-type, and also the first one to have a rather different appearance from its predecessors. This monster has the ability to reduce the bonuses given by the Hyumas through its Stored Attack, which could turn into a problem if you're fighting against several enemies. Despite this, it shouldn't be very hard to defeat.
- In Greek mythology, dryads were nymphs of oak trees. Nymphs were female nature spirits of various aspects of nature (others: oceanids [nymphs of oceans], nereids [nymphs of seas], naiads [nymphs of freshwater], oreads [nymphs of mountains]). Only in the 20th century did Dryads get reinterpreted to be tree spirits of all types of trees, not just oak trees. Dryads harmed any mortals who would kill trees in the forests or groves without making proper offerings. Meliae were the nymphs for ash trees, daphnaie were the nymphs for laurel trees, leuce were nymphs for white poplar trees and aigeiroi were nymphs for black poplar trees. Dryad is Greek for "of the tree" (feminine).

- Dryads, as they appear in the Otter Island Multiverse, are faerie folk. They have trees as their physical bodies, but also have sapient spirits which are able to assume humanoid form and wander about performing most normal human activities. Unlike dryads of classic mythology, multiverse dryads can be either male or female. The tree portion of the dryad may be any kind of tree, whether deciduous, coniferous, or in rare instances, even succulent.
- "Dryad" is an original Sweet ANN and MIRIAM song. It is featured in the Vocallective Records album, Songs of Gaia.
- Dryads are tree spirits. For reasons unknown, all Dryads are female. They are often considered guardians, and will sometimes be bonded to a single tree, protecting and caring for it until death. They can be found in forest areas but are rarely encountered. They are gentle creatures not made for combat and are easily slain. Dryads are vulnerable to Charm Person, Charm Person or Mammal, Dire Charm, and Hold Person.
- During the War of the Ring, an army of 90,000 Dryads came to aid the free nations of Middle-earth in the region of Rhovanion. While Sauron continued his role in attacking Gondor, the Dryads remained in Rhovanion to help prevent anymore Easterlings attacking the region.
- Dryads are humanoid plant creatures made out of smooth, brown or green wood, and with hair that changes colour with the seasons. The youngest race to emerge in the Land of the Living, their existence, lifespan, exact numbers and any other information about them are presently unknown to other races who remain unaware of them for the time being. Dryads first came to the world in Survivor's Woods in Libaterra after the Battle of Survivor's Woods.
- Few mortals make such a mistake twice, and then only if the individual in question is either very lucky or very swift. Dryads are able to shape-shift into different forms and often mimic the appearance of Elves. On such occasions, they appear as unearthly, lithe and beautiful maidens — albeit with a greenish hue to their skin and twigs in their long, cascading hair. It is in this form that the Dryads walk the bounds of Athel Loren. They are not choosy in their victims, preying on tree-killers, invaders and lost innocents with equal malice. The only sensible course of action when approached by such a creature is to flee as far and as fast as possible, but most potential victims find themselves enraptured by the Dryad’s comely form or beguiled by the haunting melodies of her otherworldly son
- Dryads are tree spirits - magical beings that live in trees and can assume the aspect of of a particular tree or even shape-shift into the form of a tree at will. They are only found deep in the forests of the Old World, far from the cities and towns of humans. Dryads have a solid form with flesh like the green, pliable wood of a young sapling and skin like bark. Their hair tends to be either leafy or like moss or lichen. They are about twice the height of an average Wood Elf, standing about 11-12 feet tall. Wood Elves are careful to placate these spirits and knowledgeable Wood Elf mages may ask them for help.
- Dryads are tree nymphs in Greek mythology. In Greek drys signifies 'oak,' from an Indo-European root *derew(o)- 'tree' or 'wood'. Thus dryads are specifically the nymphs of oak trees, though the term has come to be used for all tree nymphs in general. "Such deities are very much overshadowed by the divine figures defined through poetry and cult," Walter Burkert remarked of Greek nature deities (Burkert 1986, p. 174). Normally considered to be very shy creatures, except around the goddess Artemis who was known to be a friend to most nymphs.
- Dryad is the Mana Spirit of Wood. She appears as a tree, with leaves for hair and roots for feet. She is regarded as being the closest to the Mana Tree and the Mana Goddess, and her powers reflect this, with barriers that reflect magic spells, the ability to revive fallen party members, weapon enchantments that steal magic points, and granting temporary invincibility; for these powers, she is often regarded as the "Mana" or "Life" Elemental. However, she is also regarded as the "Wood", "Tree", or "Leaf" Elemental due to her powers of poison breath, flowers that put opponents to sleep, strangling vines, and other plant-related spells.
- They look like normal, pretty, young girls. They wear clothes that make them hard to spot in the forest and paint their bodies to make themselves even less visible. They have skills unique to their race such as shaping trees with their will and moving without making any sounds. At night they create makeshift glowsticks by stimulating certain fungi and crafting a wreath out of the plant to make a light source, Dryads abhor fire as it harms the forest. They do not eat dinner, as Dandelion learns from Geralt upon his first night in Brokilon, whether this is out of strict dieting etiquette to maintain their health or otherwise is unknown.
- Dryads are tree spirits. Because of their bonding to their particular tree, they can't roam too far from it or they'll wither and die. A dryad’s delicate features are much like a female elf’s, though her flesh is like bark or fine wood, and her hair is like a canopy of leaves that changes color with the seasons.
- Dryads are fey-maidens who act as the protectors of forests and trees. They appear to be beautiful women with delicate features seemingly made of soft wood. Their hair appears to be made of leaves and foliage that changes color as the seasons change. During the spring and summer months, the hair of a dryad is lush and green, while during autumn it turns red and eventually brown in the winter. Dryads are generally benign, and will attempt to warn off intruders. Only those that seem cruel and determined to destroy a dryad’s forest will see the full wrath of these fey.
- Dryads (also referred to as "Wood Nymphs", "Wood Gods", "Wood Goddesses", "Hamadryads", "Tree People", and "Silvans") were spirits of Narnian trees. They were able to assume physical bodies similar to human form, and the same size as normal humans, and they could go in and out of their trees like blossom petals.
- Dryads are daughters of the demigod Cenarius. They monitor the health of Kalimdor’s forests, ever watchful against the depredations of evil magic. The creature has the head, arms, and torso of a beautiful night elf woman, but the lower body of a fawn. A gentle calm is evident in her eyes, but she hefts a spear with practiced skill. It doesn’t look like she wants to use the spear in her hand — but if she had to, she could. (MoM 22) (APG 206) __TOC__
- They’re a type of elementals that dwell in trees, and they’re called “Demi-Elementals” since they where originally born as monsters. They nestle close to a single tree for their entire lives, and when the tree dries up, their lives end, but the trees they dwell in can keep living for thousands of years by continuing to suck spirit energy from men. Due to their rich Demon energy, they can protect themselves from searing flames and bad diseases that infect trees.
- Dryad was raised by her father after her mother died. Her father is the famous mutant landscaper, Giancarlo Betto, whom Emma Frost credits for work all around the Xavier Institute. Being a mutant himself, he definitely supported his daughter when she showed signs of mutation, and was happy that his daughter shared his mutation. He trained her as best as he could, bringing them closer together as a result. Dryad was a member of the Corsairs, along with Specter, Quill and the Stepford Cuckoos, who leads the team. However, after Scarlet Witch's actions of M-Day, Dryad was depowered and boarded a bus with other depowered students leaving the Xavier Institute, after saying goodbye to Surge. She was killed when William Stryker fired a missile at the bus, blowing it up, killing the depowered stud
- A dryad's delicate features are much like a female elf's, although her flesh is like bark or fine wood, and her hair is like a canopy of leaves that changes colour with the season, with large almond-shaped eyes. Dryads can speak Elven, Sylvan, and Common. Dryads are wild, mysterious entities, found deep in secluded woodlands such as the Tearwood. They defend the trees from any who would fell them and sometimes come into conflict with humans and others who take wood from the forests. Dryads have been known to charm adventurers into helping them defend their homes or hunting down the forest's enemies -- even if those enemies are human woodcutters.
